Hey everyone!

My hubby and I just picked up a baby Pixie frog this morning at our local reptile expo. The hubby has been flip flopping between Pacman frogs and the Pixies for about a week now, but the pixie won!

What a cutie pie, even I like him!

Here's his house!

We're fairly certain it's a true Giant Pixie; based on what the breeder told us, it's been eating 15 large crickets daily(?!), we've been reading that typically feeding every 2-3 days is the norm, so we're rather floored to hear this little one eats daily.

If you have any hints, tips & tricks for this little guy I'm all ears!


(I realized that I posted this under the wrong family tree! I know he's a True Frog... I was thinking Pacman frog, sorry!)

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
